Sauna Dekor is a salt room supplier and installation contractor for hotel spas, wellness centres and private villas in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, manufacturing in Istanbul since 1987.
Explore the rejuvenating benefits of salt therapy at our premier halotherapy salt room spa. Rooted in European traditions dating back to the 19th century, salt therapy has evolved through the insights of Polish salt industrialists. Recognizing that miners in Poland, surrounded by salt deposits, worked in a salt-rich microclimate, interest grew in recreating that environment indoors. Our salt room emerges as a groundbreaking therapy system, recreating the microclimate of salt caves for health centers, alternative treatment clinics, and the comfort of homes. Bridging accessibility gaps, our salt room spa recreate the microclimatic ambiance in spa centers, health clubs, and alternative treatment clinics.
Our specialized team is dedicated to constructing state-of-the-art therapy rooms tailored to your needs. Whether for your home, office, polyclinic, or spa center, we bring the transformative benefits of salt therapy within your reach. We pride ourselves on providing comprehensive salt room construction services, ensuring optimal dimensions and incorporating essential elements like Himalayan salt rocks and granulated pink Himalayan salt crystals.
The core function of our it is to disperse salt as respirable microparticles into the air, offering relief for various respiratory conditions. Inhaling these microparticles clears airways, promoting easier breathing and increased oxygen intake. With its antimicrobial properties, salt effectively cleanses the respiratory tract, making it an excellent choice for asthma, shortness of breath, COPD, sinusitis, and even sleep disorders.
Creating those spaces is a seamless process, as any area is suitable for its installation. Simply choose your preferred location—be it your home, office, polyclinic, or spa center. Our team is ready to assist, whether you're taking measurements or seeking expert guidance for exploration. The salt room dimensions will be tailored to your space, incorporating vital components like a water cascade producing Himalayan brine and a Halogenator dispersing microscopic salt particles into the air. Enhance your experience with optional features like a skylight, salt chimney, salt bench, salt reception desk, and a kids' salt box. Salt therapy is universally beneficial, suitable for all age groups without any chemical interactions with medications. Guests with any medical condition should ask their own doctor before using a salt room, and operators should display that notice at the room entrance.
Create a complete wellness journey by pairing your salt room with our custom sauna designs. Add a relaxing massage room or discover our steam room solutions for the ultimate spa experience.
The first decision is not the finish, it is which of two quite different rooms is being bought. An active room runs a halogenerator and is the configuration a spa or clinic needs before it advertises halotherapy at all; a passive room, often sold as a salt cave or grotto, relies on salt surfaces for atmosphere. The distinction, and what each one asks for in maintenance, is set out in detail on our page about salt rooms in Dubai.
The second decision is the environment the room has to survive. Salt attacks ordinary metals, untreated timber and standard electrical fittings, and coastal humidity accelerates it, so every concealed fixing, light fitting and vent has to be specified as salt-resistant or isolated from the salt atmosphere. Background on the treatment itself and how operators programme it is collected in our article on salt room therapy.
Three things decide what an active salt room actually delivers: the halogenerator’s output rating against the room volume, the grade and particle size of the salt it grinds, and how the air is moved so the aerosol reaches the seats rather than settling on the floor. A halogenerator sized for a 6 m² treatment room will not serve a 20 m² hotel room, and running a small unit continuously to compensate shortens its service life instead of raising output.
The service load is the part specifiers underestimate. Salt is consumed per session and refilled by staff, the grinding chamber needs cleaning on a schedule, the filters are consumables, and the extract path has to be cleanable. All of that has to be reachable without dismantling decorative salt panels, which is a design decision, not a maintenance decision — it is made when the room is drawn or it is not made at all.
A salt room is a dry, quiet, low-intensity room, which makes it the natural counterweight to the heat and cold rooms around it rather than a competitor to them. In a thermal suite it works best as a rest-and-breathe position between cycles, downstream of the heat rooms and away from wet traffic. Where the circuit is built around heat and cold contrast, the salt room is where guests sit between rounds, which is why its seating count — not its floor area — is what should be matched to the sauna and plunge capacity.
Sauna Dekor. We design, manufacture and install both active halotherapy rooms and passive salt caves for hotel spas, wellness centres, clinics and private residences in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and beyond, manufacturing in our own factory in İkitelli OSB, İstanbul since 1987. Our scope covers the sealed envelope, salt-resistant substrates and fixings, humidity control, the halogenerator installation and interface, lighting and finishes. Sauna Dekor holds TS EN ISO 9001:2015 certification for the manufacture of sauna and spa products and after-sales service; the halogenerator carries its own manufacturer’s certification.
An active salt room uses a halogenerator to produce a measured dry-salt aerosol, and it is the configuration required before an operator can describe the room as halotherapy at all. A passive salt room, often marketed as a salt cave or grotto, relies on quantities of salt on walls and floor for atmosphere. Active rooms cost more and need ongoing salt and servicing; passive rooms are simpler and are decorative and relaxation-focused. We build both, and we are explicit with clients about which one they are buying.
If the goal is halotherapy, the room has to be enclosed and well sealed so the halogenerator can hold a stable aerosol concentration; an open salt wall in a lounge cannot do that. If the goal is decorative or ambient, a backlit salt-brick feature wall is a good lower-cost way to bring the look into a gym, reception or relaxation lounge without committing to a full room.
Both, for different jobs. Himalayan salt brick and panels are the decorative element that is seen and photographed; pharmaceutical-grade sodium chloride is what is loaded into the halogenerator. A common misunderstanding is that the Himalayan walls themselves do the work. They set the scene; the halogenerator produces the aerosol.
Salt attacks ordinary metals, untreated timber and standard electrical fittings, and coastal humidity accelerates that attack. Every concealed fixing, light fitting, vent and electrical component in a salt room must be specified as salt-resistant or fully isolated from the saline atmosphere. The most common failure we are called in to correct is a handsome salt room built by a generalist contractor where the hidden steelwork and fittings had rusted within eighteen months because they were never rated for it.
By room volume and session length, not by floor area alone. The unit’s rated output has to cover the volume it is serving with the air-change rate the room runs at; a unit sized for a small treatment room cannot be made to serve a hotel-scale room by running it continuously. Salt grade and particle size and the air distribution pattern are specified with it, because an aerosol that never reaches the seats is output on paper only.
Salt refill per the manufacturer’s consumption figure, scheduled cleaning of the grinding chamber, filter replacement as a consumable, and a cleanable extract path. The design decision that makes or breaks this is access: all of it has to be reachable without dismantling decorative salt panels, and that is fixed when the room is drawn.
